I just wanna play football and the Powers that be cry "realism" for all the changes in recent versions.
I play defensive lineman on the D-line. I play linebackers at linebacker and defensive backs at defensive back.
But owners have found all these exploits which really changes the game away from any aspect of realism.
Like the punt block, in real life you can overload a side and sent a speedy guy around the edge to occasionally block a kick or punt but in this sim....that speedy guy lines up opposite an elite pass blocking offensive lineman and makes him look stupid....just that linemans shear size and strength will negate that corners ability to get to the kick by making him go completely around him....in the game, he takes a straight line through the lineman.....broken
It's like what am I suppose to make of this strategy??? They took away so much in the name of realism and scoring that they forces owners to find other options.
I'm still waiting for JDB to explain how that WR had 12 int and 4 pick 6's. To me, it's just pass catching that makes a corner.
I tried it and it worked....only played cb for 5 snaps and got a pick
